Product idea was wonderful, execution was terrible. Shipping issues, subscription issues with cleaning pods, support availability was poor, then we are out of business. I purchased 3 devices and 1 kin... See more

3 our of 4 of my units stopped working within a couple months, and even when they did work it simply slowed down the toilet-cleaning that was needed... Definitely doesn't replace toiled cleaning. Plus... See more

Company went belly-up..

Company went belly-up... I still have my units but am unable to use them because the app (required) is no longer available at the Apple Store. So I have two very new paperweights. Lovely (not).

I'm so late

I'm so late. I ordered back in the end of 2020. I was so excited that I joined their private shine bathroom Facebook group. In February 2021 I started questioning the company. Their new customer service guy had a profile that said he had been with the company as long as the other employees. Alot of things they were saying didn't add up. I was booted from the group for asking those questions. I tried to tell people in the group but no one listened. Thankfully I got my money back. I feel bad for all the people who lost their money.

AWFUL

I purchased 4. I could only get one to work and never received replies from my multiple attempts to reach them via app, email, etc. I would urge anyone thinking about purchasing to STOP and spend your $$ (and time) elsewhere!

I bought two faulty units

I bought two units! I was sooo excited about the idea of never having to clean my toilet again. Neither unit worked. I spent hours trying to make the first unit work. I called the company. They weren't helpful. I emailed them that I was returning the units and expected a refund. I returned the units. I never got a refund. I never heard anything from the company.

this company is the worst

this company is the worst. no way to order more pods, no support, no website - THE WORST. Feel like I got duped when I was actually trying to do good by the environment!

I bought 2 shine bathroom assistants…

I bought 2 Shine Bathroom Assistants and after about 6 months one of them started to leak all the way around the water bowl base and building up a calcium deposit about half an inch out. Not much longer after that the battery eventually stopped accepting a charge and now it’s completely worthless and won’t work. Now my 2nd Shine Assistant won’t spray at all. I’ve reached out to customer service via email 3 times and messenger because you can’t call them due to them being so busy they can’t answer and never get an actual person to reply. They send me links to troubleshoot problems that don’t help me. I also pay a subscription fee to order unlimited cleaning pods but they have removed the option to order more pods for several months now, preventing me from being able to use the Shine Assistants even if they were working. I’m very unhappy with customer service and products lasting such little time.

Given that you haven’t sent cleaning…

Given that you haven’t sent cleaning pods, despite multiple requests, since December, or maybe early January, I’m not very happy at all. I liked the product, it did a good job keeping my toilets clean (well water, very hard water). But of no use if I can’t get the pods.

You’re in bankruptcy but

You’re in bankruptcy but, you took my money and the product doesn’t work!!!

The email we are all getting is a bot no one is at this company. If anyone has a working unit and needs pods I’ve got some in a box x doing me zero good since my unit doesn’t work anyway. Find me on Facebook and DM me.
